Welcome!
On behalf of Launceston College I warmly invite musicians to participate in the 2015 Launceston College Performing Arts Music
Summer School. Our last four Summer Schools have been an outstanding success due to the enthusiasm of our
participating students, the expertise and commitment of our expert music staff and the extraordinary support from
Launceston College. I would like to acknowledge the educational support and sponsorship we have received this year
from The Tasmanian Bands League and Encore Theatre Company. We look forward to seeing you at the Summer
School. Peter Quigley: Head of Performing Arts Music, Esk Band Program, LC Performing Arts Music Summer Schools
Concert Band Programs 12-16 January (Monday to Friday)
The Concert Band Program aims to give woodwind, brass and percussion musicians from primary school level to advanced community
level the opportunity to develop their instrumental skills, musicality and sight reading in graded concert bands. All participants will be
expected to have their own instruments (percussion gear is provided) and have a basic level of competence on their instruments. The
program is not designed for total beginners. Students will be assigned to an ensemble which reflects their skill level and one
in which they feel comfortable. While emphasis will be on developing instrumental and musical skills, we also want
participants to have fun, make new friends and have a rewarding performance experience.
Conductor in Residence: Major Peter Grant (retired) Musical Director of the Australian Army Band Melbourne.
Other instrumental staff include: Matthew Dudfield, Peter Quigley and additional staff to be announced.
Voice for the Stage 12-16 January

cabaret performances. Brett has performed alongside Jimmy Barnes, Diesel, Deni Hines, Kasey Chambers in the inaugural
Breath of Life Music Festival. He has also performed with well-known Australian artists Darryl Braithwaite, Brian Cadd, Ross
Wilson and Jessica Mayboy. He is one of Tasmania's few professional contemporary music acts and has performed in
